Hello!
The discriminant of quadratic functions is: b² - 4ac. Since the equation is in standard form, which is Ax² + Bx + C = 0 , we can substitute those values into our discriminant and simplify.
The value of the discriminant will tell us how many solutions there are to the given quadratic equation.
A positive discriminant will have two real solutions.
A discriminant of zero will have one real solution.
A negative discriminant will no real solutions.
1. Substitute, a = 16, b = 8, c = 1.
8² - 4(16)(1)
64 - 4(16)(1)
64 - 64(1)
64 - 64
0
Since the discriminant is zero, the answer is choice A, double root, because since it is raised to the power of 2, it must has two roots, but in this case, both of the roots the same x-values.
Answer:
a=54
Step-by-step explanation:
a+10+44=2a
54=2a-a
54=a
<span>The limousine will cost $240.
$180 for the first three hours, plus 30 for each hour after. They need two extra hours.
So, 180+30(2)=240.
They also want to leave a $20 dollar tip.
So, 240+20=260
That is $260 dollars they need to pay altogether.
Divide that number by the number of students and you'll get how much they each must pay.
260/8=32.50
$32.50 each.
